Generation of Multi-Color Attosecond X-Ray Radiation Through Modulation Compression

preprint2011arXivOpen access

Abstract

In this paper, we propose a scheme to generate tunable multi-color attosecond coherent X-ray radiation for future light source applications. This scheme uses an energy chirped electron beam, a laser modulators, a laser chirper and two bunch compressors to generate a multi-spike prebunched kilo-Ampere current electron beam from a few tens Ampere electron beam out of a linac. Such an electron beam transports through a series of undulator radiators and bunch compressors to generate multi-color coherent X-ray radiation. As an illustration, we present an example to generate two attosecond pulses with 2.22.2 nm and 33 nm coherent X-ray radiation wavelength and more than 200200 MW peak power using a 3030 Ampere 200200 nm laser seeded electron beam.
